smbmount will do both IF your personal directory is also a share. You can mount the big share ro on /mnt/bigwin and the personal share rw on /mnt/personalwin
BUT your personal share has to be a share. If it's a homedir, it may be a hidden share (starts with a $). I don't know how smbmount will like that $ . . . If it isn't a share unto itself, then you can mount bigwin a 2nd time rw at /mnt/dontusethisbigwin and create a symbolic link from /mnt/personalwin to /mnt/dontusethisbigwin/subdir/subdir/personalwin madmac On Sun, 2003-10-19 at 03:07, Robert Ian Smit wrote: > I run Debian unstable on my desktop at work. > > The file and print services are Windows-based, as are most of the > other desktops. > > I am able to get either rw or ro access to the network share.
